Instead of flipping out, you could have looked for a better pic. We are joking. It is hard to tell what they are with a bad pic.

They look good

If those Mayas are G35 coupe spec, even though they are low-disk, u'll have no problem clear the front calipers since G35 coupe run +20s offset in the front. But, the front wheels will stick out about 1/2 inch.

Exactly the offsets for the G35 are in German car territory, (ie, +20-25mm range), where as with a 20" staggered set up for an LS you need to be in the 35 (fr) to 42-45(rr) range. And when talking offset, 10 millimeters is comparable to 10inches, since that how far the wheels will appear to stick out.

Maya/Maido are just susidiaries of the same company, and they are revamping their wheel line, alot of the 5spoke Mayas are no longer in production and I believe this wheel is one of them. If you want them for your LS, send me an email, I will attempt to help you (link below in sig)
